Remember that these were estimates from more than three years ago and before Microsoft completed its acquisition of ZeniMax in March 2021, so there’s always the chance that some of these plans have changed dramatically or been scrapped entirely. But they may provide an early look at some of the games we can look forward to from Microsoft down the road.

Hopefully a better UI for Oblivion, with the included ability to actually remove spells.

As long as us Germans get to keep using our "Schw. Tr. d. Le.-En. W."

(The German translation for "weak potion of restore health" was too long for the UI, so they just put this absolute butchering in instead)

What would the full German name be?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

"Schwacher Trank der Lebensenergie-Wiederherstellung."

Oblivion auto generated potion names based on their effects and the template they used lead to this super long names in german. A proper translation would have been "Schwacher Heiltrank" or "Schwacher Lebensregenerstionstrank"

A better UI? By Bethesda? I wouldn't bet on it.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, i was about to say. Oblivion's UI is actually miles better than Starfield's. All it really needs is to have the height of UI list elements to be scaled down so that theyre fit for modern monitors and TVs rather than a low res CRT

CRTs are all that Bethesda has at their offices

Damn, even that Microsoft money couldnt help them out
